The People Still Digging Out tho Remains
of the Victims Of the Recent Earthquake
I'm Mexico.
81. Lou1s, Mo-, May 2l.-A special from
the City Of Mexico says: The chief Of the
fiscal guard at Bapispe Sonora reports that
the earthquake did not leave single habi-
table house standing. Sixty persons we're
killed and many wounded beyond the hope
of recovery. Between 3p. m. and q. m.
the day following, there were eighteen
shocks. The people are still digging out tho
bodies, and think the number of killed will
reach 15O. The Jefe Politico of
Casas Grandes sends word that there is
great need of food for eufferers in the dis
trict affected. In letter from Janos he de-
clares that when the earthquake occurred
they saw large boulders shoot up into the
air and flames burst from the SUBMITS of
the mountains, setting fire to the forests.
The municipal president of San Andres
writes that houses were shattered, but the
most remarkable of all was this: In the
Arrago there is clear normal condition. A
letter from Cases Grander says: In the
which We call Sierra Madre
volcano of fire was started, which is even
now covered with great clouds Of smoke.

The Latest Plan.

Cu1cAao. May 21.-A secret circular pur-
porting to give the latest plan for the or
ganization of the International Working
Peoples association, the revolutionary So
ciety to which the condemned anarchists be-
longed, is as follows: No group is to exceed
five in number. After the first five are or
ganized let them select central organizer
and separate again, each individual starting
another group of his own, num- ering five.
When group is reported full le, the central
organizer inspect them and verify the fact.
By this system not more than six will come
together. The organizer alone becomes
familiar with twenty similar twenty
fives can be established at various points.
The central organizers will constitute an
executive committee of five, as limit,
which would give membership of lbs. So
on and 80 on until the city is honeycombed
with groups into which detectives cannot
penetrate beyond q certain limited length.
Later a systematic grouping OF the different
cities will be brought about and thorough
correspondence secured.

GALvHsToN, Msy 19.-The Ne,cs' SanAnto-
MO special says: The north bound express
on the Missouri Pacific which left this city
at O'Clock last evening, encountered gang
Of train robbers about 10 O'Clock at Nc
Neells station, twenty miles north Of
Austin. Harry Land, commercial
traveller, who wss on the train arrived here
tonight. He says that before the train
reached McNeill the robbers had secured the
station agent and bound him. As the train
slowed up at the station the robbers to the
number of twelve or fifteen fired several
yolleys to Intimidste the passengers.
Land, on hearing the shots reused his
window and looked out, when an order was
given him to draw his head back and close
the window. Before he had time to comply
he was wounded in the arm and badly
powder burned BY shot fired
In close proximity to him. The
train was held up for nearly an
hour, after which time it was allowed to pro.
oeed. The doors of the express car were
forced open and about $4,000 was taken.
Express Messenger Nothacker, who was
ordered to turn over the money,
handed the robbers only q small
amount, and was beaten over
the head. A brakeman was wounded during
the fusilade. Postal Clerk Spalding said he
distinctly heard the order given by the
leader, "Don't touch any of the passengers
and don't shoot any Of our own men," The

ST. PETERSBURG, May 21.-It is officially
announced that Andre Gushkin, Ossipanoff
Generalof and Uljanof and Sheiveyrof
were executed yesterday for the part they
took in the recent alto mpt on the life of the
car. During the trial of the conspirators
by the senate and in the presence Of repre-
sentatives of various governme nts, it trans
PRED that a criminal society was formed to
overthrow the government and establish a
commune by violent revolution. In 1886
they formed secret circle for action, and
resolved in December to make an attempt to
assassinate the car, for which purpose they
procured explosive bombs. On March Is
they went to Newsky Prospect, where it was
their intention to throw missiles under the
cars carriage as it passed by, but the police
frustrated their design. It was also brought
out on trial that Woman named Serdjukova
knew of the plot and could have given

A Political Plot

81. LOUIS, Mo-, May ia special from
the City Of Mexico says: The details of q
most formidable political plot are in the pos
session Of the government. Don Carlos,
claimant to the Spanish throne, has signi-
fed his acceptance of an invitation to visit
Mexico and will arrive in that city in few
days. He will be made social lion on the
surface, but those in the movement are
already planning to give his presence great
political significance. They expect to rally
around him the church party of Mexico, the
remnant of the old imperial faction, and
other elements opposed to liberal govern
ment. An answer TO letters laying before
Rome the plan to get control of Mexico, and
asking the approval Of the pope's counsel
ors, says that they wished things in
Mexico were more in their favor, but op-
pose revolutionary measures. Their
policy would be in changing the convictions
of men and educating the young to the
Catholic standpoint. This was q set back
to the plotters, who proposed to 60 right
along and stir up all the trouble they can
and watch for an opportunity for the bal
ance Of power, and hope to substitute for
the present system more centralized one be-
ing largely governed by circumstances. Don
Carlos has not hope in Spain, but is look
ing for aid in Austria and Cuba. The adop-
ton of the reelection amendment has
checked the plot, as it was expected that the
Gonzales faction and Romero Rubis party
would weaken the government in a bitter
fight for the presidency; but az long as Diaz
retains control they have but little chance.

tie, In reference to the remarkable increase
